I have a hatchback sport touring, my steering wheel has a volume control but its a little bar that can be pressed on either side (+,-)
yes but on the sedan you can slide your finger up and down to change volume. It takes some getting use to, though.

They specifically disabled the slider function on the hatches permanently for some unknown reason.

Yep, and it can mute with a quick swipe down

First of all he was talking shit about a cvt, not a turbo, so i trolled the troll. Second The Type R, you know a CIVIC, is a RACE CAR built for the street. Third the fastest 10th gen currently runs 11.78 at 118 mph, thats pretty fast, for any economy car. 4th, again, im not going to respect someone who comes in here running his mouth about something he hasnt even driven. 5th, if you get to break out your AWD TLX do I get to choose what car I race you in, since you know, neither are made for racing lol. Lastly, anything can be a race car, all you need are 2 cars and 2 people willing to see which one is faster, or bracket race.....
My bad man, there was a lot to read in the thread and a lot of negativity going on and I got kinda fed up lol and I didnt read it in context completely so thats my bad. And the also saying by no means was I trying to flex my tlx of all things bc obviously like i said before not exactly a fast car, just misunderstood your comment from before.

Wow. A peaceful resolution in a forum. I'm completely baffled and amazed. No sarcasm, bravo.

Side note, the slide functionality on the volume is amazing. Was actually one of my salesman's selling points given he didn't have that in his own LX. Use it all the time to mute when rolling up to a drive through with the brake lock functionality picking up my double cheeseburger (lol).

brake hold and slow speed follow are amazing. set that slow speed follow and let the car do the work

An AWD civic would be absolutely crazy and if honda gave it the right dynamics would defenitely crush a lot of its competitors.

Overweight? The TLX literally weighs as much as a sedan in its class should...theres nothing "overweight" about it. And sure the V6 is slowly being eaten out by turbo 4's but calling it primitive is a bit of a stretch, Im 22 years old and call me whatever you want or but I like the smoothness, sound, and linear powerband of a V6 over turbo 4's in general, just a personal preference.

Also, I didnt buy a TLX for driving around town or to race in, I bought it because my job takes me on roadtrips a LOT which means a lot of time on the highway, which the TLX is perfect for as a fairly luxurious, powerful highway cruiser between states/cities.
